[Elecraft] KAT500 & ports

[Paul Ormandy ZL4PW]

Hi all,

Maybe someone with computer nous than me can answer this.

Just hooked up the KAT500 and went to configure with the utility.

However, the utility is only showing ports 3 and 6 as available. Port 3 is where I have the K3 
plugged in and the only spare port I have, which is on the end of a 4 way USB splitter, is 
apparently not port 6!

The USB splitter is plugged into port 4, so I removed it and plugged the KAT500 cable into port 4, 
expecting the latter show as the available port, but it still only gave me the options of 3 or 6. I 
tried another port to no avail.

Have read the help file tip about the manage facility on My Computer and see that the device does 
attach itself to port 6... which it cannot connect to.

BTW, I have no idea which is physically port 6...

Cheers,

Paul
